From official site, thursday panelist are Patton Oswalt, Morgan Murphy, and Blaine Capatch (I'm looking forward to that episode).

[formerlyfreedom]

Thanks, Mrc, for the info!

[Kromm]

Suggestion:  maybe the title of this thread should be changed to something like "Panelist announcements", because otherwise this is going to be a totally dead thread pretty soon.  It will slot in nicely with the two other panelist threads (one for favorite past panelists, and one for the wish list for future panelists).  We'll have a trinity then--past, present (this thread) and future.

[formerlyfreedom]

Thanks, Kromm, good suggestion.

I don't know if this is the right place or even applicable, but comedian Greg Beherent posted a picture to facebook from behind the scenes at this show. No idea when the episode will air. But I like him a lot, so I'm excited. 

[formerlyfreedom]

Looks like it's tonight's episode, Baltron --

Doug Benson, Esther Povitsky and Greg Behrendt (Tuesday, April 8);

[Baltron9000]

Cool! For some reason I missed his name in Trow125's post. Anyway, he's funny and I'm a fan. One of things this show does well is putting people I know and enjoy.

Is it physically &/or contractually impossible for the Sklar Brothers to appear on a show separately?

How would you know which one you had?

I've always suspected they were conjoined.

 

5/1 Jim Gaffigan, Todd Glass and Nikki Glaser

 

 

I'm looking forward to this show... a 3G theme?

[BellaLugosi]

I'm looking forward to Gaffigan too! 

[Kromm]

Rove McManus is an interesting pick (since Americans hardly know him, but he's a huge star in his native Australia).

[EricJ]

Tuesday looks like there may be a musical component- all three of those folks are musical performers. (Mike Phirman used to perform with Chris Hardwick as "Hard and Phirm.)

[buck1]

I got to say, I'm most excited about the Rooster teeth guys on the 14th. Frankly if I thought there was enough support, I'd request a red vs blue board.....or however it's done here.

He also was the house band on the (now I think discontinued) Nerdist TV show.

Apparently Whitney Cummings will be on tonight's episode.

The talented Whitney who did good stand up, or the hack who did shitty TV shows?

[trow125]

Coming up this week:

Mo 6/2: Greg Proops, Alison Rosen, Dana Gould
Tu 6/3: Max Silvestri, Nick Thune, Kristen Schaal
We 6/4: Bobby Lee, Arden Myrin, Tim Simons
Th 6/5: Paul F. Tompkins, Heather Anne Campbell, Brett Gelman

[trow125]

MONDAY 6/9
• Dave Hill, Steve Agee, Michelle Buteau
TUESDAY 6/10
• Rob Riggle, Ice Cube, Jimmy Tatro
WEDNESDAY 6/11
• Tommy Johnagin, Maria Bamford, Jackie Kashian
THURSDAY 6/12
• Jimmy Pardo, Ali Wong, Ian Edwards

[EricJ]

Ice Cube? I'm guessing Rob Riggle is there to be Mr. Reliable and keep the game moving.

 

-Ah, they're all in 22 Jump Street. Too bad they couldn't get Nick Offerman. They probably could get Jonah Hill, but he'd spend half of the show apologizing for the other half.

[EricJ]

On the latest Doug Loves Movies, Doug announced that the June 22 show (the 100th episode) will be him, Ron Funches and Nikki Glaser.

 

If you're a fan of DLM, I can't recommend this episode enough.

Glaser is one of the best on this show (I have in fact put her on top of all of the females comedians on this show at one point), but after the way she totally killed on the show last week I might be tempted to move Kristen Schaal slightly above her if we're going for the "2 guys, 1 girl" formula.

According to Chris's Twitter Jonah Hill and Channing Tatum will also make an appearance on tonight's show.

[heebiejeebie]

While it might lend to the long term success of the show, I hope last night is not a trend.  I do not want to see panel after panel playing the publicity tour run for whatever movie or show is coming out.  I say this with the awareness of hypocrisy since I thoroughly enjoyed the Undateable episode.    Though in my defense I believe all three panelists that night have some background in comedy.

[ottoDbusdriver]

I say this with the awareness of hypocrisy since I thoroughly enjoyed the Undateable episode.

 

The sad part is that while the @Midnight episode starring the Undateable actors was pretty funny, the Undateable show itself is just not that funny (way too much Chris D'Elia, not enough Ron Funches).

[trow125]

Next week's guests include Deon Cole, Jesse Joyce and a guest TBA (Monday, June 16); Randy Sklar, Jason Sklar and Erin Foley (Tuesday, June 17); Chris D'Elia, Will Sasso and Bryan Callen (Wednesday, June 18); and David Wain, Michael Showalter and Michaela Watkins (Thursday, June 19).

[ottoDbusdriver]

Uggh, Chris D'Elia is going to be on.  Not looking forward to that, as he sucks all the funny out of Undateable.  More Ron Funches.

[Monty]

I have nothing against Michaela Watkins, but I was really hoping for Michael Ian Black in that slot.

[heebiejeebie]

D'Elia, Sasso and Callen should be an interesting group.  All can be incredible attention whores on panel shows.  All can annoy the heck out of me.  But all, again on comedy panel shows, have also surprised me into gut wrenching laughter. 

 

Still if I'm getting Undateable actors and the last name isn't Funches, I want Brent Morin.  In fact I almost want Brent Morin on after his last appearance as much as I want to see Funches again.  Morin is why I now wince-watch Undateable.  Not Funches.

 

I'm really excited for David Wain.

Ah, Morin's okay.  But he's no Funches!

Sasso is a ham/attention whore, true, nevertheless I like him.

 

The Sklars can just go away already.  They must have incriminating pictures of Hardwick or something.

[BellaLugosi]

They are hosting his bowling show, and I'm sure I remember him saying that AMC picked them to host.

[Princess Sparkle]

Doug Benson mentioned on his podcast that the 100th episode on June 24th is going to be him, Ron Funches and Nikki Glasier. I am extremely excited for that.

[Demented Daisy]

Bryan Callen?  He's marginally funny, but he also kind of creeps me out.  Can't explain it.

 

Looking forward to David Wain and Michael Showalter -- with any luck, he won't say "I'm outta here!" this time.

So is it the 22nd or the 24th? I need to plan to stay up that night to see Ron!

 

ETA - it must be the 24th, since the 22nd is a Sunday.

Calendars are your friend!

[Princess Sparkle]

Yeah, he originally said the 22nd, and then on the next episode, said the 24th because he realized the 22nd was a Sunday.

[Kromm]

No doubt he was slightly high at the time.  

[fastiller]

Slightly?

[EricJ]

Doug Benson slightly high probably pretty much equals "as high as you've ever been."

[Demented Daisy]

So Brandon "One punch and down!" Walsh is the TBA guest for tonight?  He could be decent.

 

At this rate, they may be considering a World's Dumbest episode.

[trow125]

Next week's guests include Jason Nash, Busy Philipps and Andy Daly, stars of the movie "Jason Nash Is Married" (Monday, June 23); Doug Benson, Nikki Glaser and Ron Funches (Tuesday, June 24); Steve Byrne, Owen Benjamin and Roy Wood Jr., cast of the TV series "Sullivan & Son" (Wednesday, June 25); and Harley Morenstein, Grace Helbig and Hannah Hart (Thursday, June 26).

 

None of the names from June 26 rang a bell, but they are, I guess, YouTube celebrities. Respectively: "Epic Meal Time"; "it'sGrace"; and "My Drunk Kitchen."

 

Oh, and after next week, the show will be on hiatus for 2 weeks (as will "The Daily Show" and "Colbert"). Back July 14.

Well, I'll be up late for sure on Monday and Tuesday. Yay for Funches!
